Developers have put forward a conveyancer and I've obtained an estimate from them. They are almost two hundred pounds cheaper than my preferred West Dulwich lawyer. Should I use them?

Developers frequently have panels of property lawyers who are quick and who know the builder's documentation and conveyancing practitioner. Plenty of developers offer an inducement to use their approved conveyancing practitioner for this reason, any increased cost can be avoided and a developer will not recommend a conveyancing warehouse and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they require an exchange within a tight deadline. A counter-argument for not opting for the recommended conveyancer is that they may be unwilling to 'push' your interests at the risk of upsetting the sellers. If you worry that this may be the case you should keep with your local West Dulwich conveyancer.
